Sorry to pitch in on this so late - and I'm not suggesting
this was not the right thing to do here, but I feel that
having the per-protocol globals (as we do for TCP) is a
good thing, as then you don't affect all (raw, udp..)
traffic on the system just because someone is tuning
for SCTP, etc.

Just my 0.2c :)
